By myself and then some.

why I need to lose weight plus my rewards:

Need to lose weight gained due to medication taken.
I cannot change my medication now, but i can exercise more and eat in a more healthy and less disorganized way.
edit: since the end of September '08, I take less meds and feel wonderful, hooray!
2nd edit: since Oct '10, I take even less meds and feel good that way. No cholesterol either, Ive checked!

Here are some rewards i'll give myself along the way. ...

Here are some rewards i'll give myself along the way.

for starting walking again on a regular basis i did some shopping. cool sunglasses, and dress and a T-shirt that actually fit my size. we'll think of buying smaller size clothes later!

for doing 20 minutes of intensive strength daily PLUS walking daily, i bought myself some fancy oolong (wulong) tea. Delicious !

just for sticking with my goals and feeling good : buy myself a nice bouquet of flowers

for walking a whole hour with no pain in the knees/feet (i have osteoarthritis) , i bought a music CD (Tracey Kent).

for NOT committing suicide and feeling revived again, i bought a wonderful silvery notebook, plus a novel to read and other stationery stuff like a new pen, etc... September always meant the beginning of a new year for me!

weight 98kg : buy myself my fave perfume (Caudalie)
weight 78kg: my mom stops to smoke forever!!!

I'm also supposed to walk for an hour daily but didn't get around it yet.
That's not true anymore, i walk a least half an hour daily, and a whole hour if my schedule allows.

I'm so glad to hear you're feeling a bit better. Nonetheless, I really hope you called your psychiatrist.

Forget fitness and weight blah blah blah.....30 minutes of busting a sweat equals free drugs - so I hope you're taking an opportunity to get up and move, too.

Things are going to get better. :) And in the meantime, we'll all be here cheering for you.

thanks, Vajra, much better. The suicide thoughts at least are gone.

I need to take better care of myself. Regular healthy food, sleep, and activities.

Yesterday, I went to a Museum in Paris, met my best friend for a hot chocolate. that was fine.

But then I couldn't resist also going to a concert with another friend and that was too much. I was hungry, I was tired. I couldn't enjoy the concert and cried and had suicide thoughts all the time. Even the beautiful music of Haendel's didn't help!

But anyway, between doing nothing for days in a row and suddenly doing too much, i need to find my own personal balance !

Have a nice day Vajra, I will see a DVD at home today. Just enjoying myself.

Vic
